Blaser R8. Top Loading and De-cocking Video

Here's a video I made of top loading and de-cocking the Blaser R8. These two operations seem to be difficult for some people who are new to the R8. Hopefully this will help.

Excellent!

Maybe the basis of a new song?

Maybe so! Goes like this...

I picked her up.....held her tightly...And loaded her with one hand. Why that's so hard, I just don't understand.

And when she was primed for firing, I racked one in her chamber, shouldered her and cocked her with one thumb.

But the urge to fire, it left me, so I slowly let her down. With my barrel pointed safely at the ground.

I've cocked many guns in my life, son.
But I've never had so much trouble de-cocking one.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.
